Peoria’s Mesquite council district ballot set

Douglas, Shafer to face off for special election, Nov. 8

Two individuals will compete for former Mesquite District Peoria City Council member Bridget Binsbacher’s seat, who stepped down earlier this year to run for mayor.

Interim councilmember Brad Shafer and Diane Douglas, former state schools superintendent and Peoria Unified School District board member, have submitted enough signatures to secure spots on a Nov. 8 special election ballot.

The elected council member will serve in the seat until the end of 2024.
